NBA Backer King Chapter 553

Chapter 553 Small sardines?

After dinner, the Lakers rested for half an hour and returned to the visiting team's locker room for pre-war preparations.

Before tying the bandages, Gao Bin gave Pharaoh's ankle and knee a special medicated oil massage to relax. After the afternoon training, he also did acupuncture on his left ankle. Pharaoh's left ankle was injured before. Doing some maintenance is the best.

In the locker room of the home team, like Pharaoh, Jordan is also asking his exclusive masseuse to give him a medicated oil massage for his lower limbs.

In the finals, his breakthrough tactics were the main tactics. For him, the burden on his lower limbs was heavy, so he had to take good care of it.

At 7:30, the two sides announced the starting lineup.

Lakers: Wang Tiejun, Danny Fortson, Rick Fox, Richmond, Kobe

Knicks: O'Neal, Oakley, Dale Ellis, Jordan, Charlie Ward

"Fox didn't get a chance to play after he was fired by Old K. He started again tonight, which shows that Old K realized the importance of Fox." Bill Walton said.

Kenny Smith said in a mocking tone: "Bill, why don't you say that the Lakers coaching staff realized the importance of Fox?"

Bill Walton shrugged and said: "Without the consent of the old K, Fox would not have a chance to play, I am sure of that."

Barkley said: "Old K rarely does this, and from what I know of him, he rarely interferes with the work of the coaching staff.

Fox didn't play since the day before yesterday, and I think it was the Lakers coaching staff's decision to loosen up on Ellis' defense.

At the back, Mullin defended Ellis. The second and third quarters were well defended, but in the last quarter, Chris Mullin's old age and general defensive level were exposed, and Ellis hit three deadly three-pointers. ball and lost the game.

If Fox is on the court, as long as he defends with all his strength, he can lock Ellis, and he locks Ellis in the first three games. "

At this time, the starters of the two teams are preparing to play.

"Old K, we have won this game!" In the player tunnel, O'Neal said loudly with confidence.

"I don't talk to people who don't have the guts to single out with me." Old Wang twisted his head and didn't even look at O'Neal.

O'Neal was smoking in his nose, and he was so angry that he had nothing to say. The Knicks not only began to double-team Old K, but also directly punished him.

"Since the last game, the age of giant beasts belongs to me alone, because a person who does not dare to single out with me is not qualified to compete with me. He does not even have the confidence and strength to face me alone. I have to find a few helpers to stand by my side, what qualifications does he have to call himself a giant beast?"

Pharaoh's next words made O'Neal so angry that he vomited blood, especially since Pharaoh didn't even look at him, it even made him furious.

"I'm going to fight him one-on-one." O'Neal angrily snarled at Jordan.

"Ha ha…"

Lao Wang didn't have any cover at all, he just burst into laughter.

"Ha ha…"

Behind , Kobe and the others also laughed.

Jordan was so angry that his face was blue, staring at Pharaoh's eyes with fire.

But he couldn't control Pharaoh's mouth, so he could only shout sharply at O'Neal: "Shaq, this is his psychological warfare, don't be fooled by him, double-teaming is the team's tactic, and it has nothing to do with your strength. Clip him, does not mean that your strength is not as good as him.

If you choose to go it alone, it is the stupidest choice. You will never have a chance to win the championship. He will be on your head for the rest of your life. "

"You guys play slowly, we're going out first."

At this time, the host outside began to call the visiting team to play. The old dynasty Jordan and O'Neal waved their hands, and after throwing a nasty remark, they followed behind their teammates.

"This bastard!"

Looking at the back of Old K, Jordan gritted his teeth in hatred.

Next to , O'Neal was still breathing, and he was obviously still agitated. He hurriedly took the time to do ideological work and persuade him.

At eight o'clock, the game officially started.

"Championship! Championship..."

Before the Lakers bench, Wang Tiejun still led his team to shout out their goal. With the support of 3,000 fans of the away team, the momentum was not small.

On the Knicks side, O'Neal didn't wait to shout a slogan, and went on the court angrily. Jordan could only reluctantly end the game and walked onto the court with the others.

"Old K, I won't make you feel better." In the middle of the circle, staring at Pharaoh in front of him, O'Neal gritted his teeth.

"How many helpers do you plan to call today?" Old Wang asked slowly.

"Ha ha…"

The master of holding chimes, Fortson, immediately laughed in coordination, and then Kobe and the others did not want to be weak, and laughed in succession.

O'Neal's eyes were all red, and he glared at Kobe and the others, especially the rookie Fordson, who gave him an extra glance. He vowed to make these people look good tonight.

Barkley saw this scene in the live broadcast. Although he didn't know what happened, it was obvious that the Lakers had angered the big shark, so he said: "An angry big shark is likely to explode with greater energy and destructive power, So the Lakers have to be careful."

"Snapped!"

The ball is thrown, the angry shark jumps high, swipes the ball away, and the Knicks attack.

O'Neal moved towards the basket and was blocked by Pharaoh. He took a step towards the left wing and suddenly turned around flexibly, got rid of Pharaoh and ran to the next step of the free throw line.

At this time, Charlie Ward, who was holding the ball, just took a step over the center line, and Kobe defended one step away, and immediately passed the ball when he saw it.

When Pharaoh followed, he was stuck behind by O'Neal, and then the ball arrived, O'Neal received the ball, and immediately turned left quickly, his left elbow stuck in position to hold Pharaoh, bypassed Pharaoh and smashed to the basket, and burst out after a step. , with a bang, smashed the Lakers' basket.

Fordson returned to the basket and was half a beat too late.

"Old K, it's your turn!"

After succeeded, red-eyed O'Neal stared at Pharaoh and roared.

"Angry shark, will there be a wave?"

Pharaoh is not worried about O'Neal's outbreak, because the more the outbreak, the faster the shark's physical energy is consumed, and O'Neal's physical fitness is not as good as his, so as long as the Lakers can withstand the outbreak of the big shark, there will be opportunities behind.

As for whether the Lakers can withstand the outbreak of the big sharks, he is not worried, because no matter how strong the Knicks are, with the strength of the Lakers and his strength, they cannot be taken away in one wave.

Of course, the reverse is also true, and the Lakers do not have the strength to take the Knicks in one wave.

Lakers offense.

Pharaoh wanted the ball in the low post on the left wing, and Kobe passed the ball directly from the top of the arc.

"Snapped!"

Facing up, when Pharaoh received the ball, he had noticed Oakley's weak-side help, the man was behind O'Neal, and Jordan was moving towards him.

In the next instant, between dribblings, he stepped back with his left foot, inserted between O'Neal's legs, stepped on the left line of the paint area, turned halfway, turned his body from the face up, and turned his back to the basket. , and completed the steps to get to O'Neal.

"Back arch!"

O'Neal's body tightened, but he didn't retreat. He was going to stand up to Old K here and wait for Oakley's double-team.

As long as he drags Old K for half a second to a second, the teammate's double team will definitely arrive.

Although he was about to die of anger by the old K, but under Jordan's persuasion, his calmness was not lost, and he was still implementing the team's double-team tactics.

"Boom!"

Under the back arch of Tieshan's back, O'Neal's upper body slumped back, his feet loosened, and he was heartbroken, but he was not knocked back.

In the next instant, Pharaoh turned to the upper half, took off and hit a sideways hook.

O'Neal's heart was moved, and it was too late to take off and block, and Oakley and Jordan were also half a beat slower.

"brush!"

A shot that is close to the open and hits the ball with precision.

"Little sardine, it's your turn." Old Wang spat out trash talk.

"Small, little sardines?" The big shark's eyes were really burning with fire.

Sardines are fine, they are about thirty centimeters when they grow up, but small sardines are only a few centimeters. Is Mr. K humiliating him? He hates small the most, he likes big, big, big, big everywhere.

Jordan is a pity, he is only a little bit short, with his bounce, just half a step faster, he can completely block Old K's side hook from behind.

After Wang Tiejun returned to the defense, he pulled O'Neal and said, "Shaq, as long as you carry him for half a second, I can be in place, let's join forces and kill him!"

O'Neal nodded with red eyes, and ran to the front court with gritted teeth.

Right wing, Jordan holds the ball.

"Is it different from before?" Harris frowned on the sidelines.

"boom!"

Jordan took a tentative step, smashed Richmond with one step, and slammed into the paint area. Fordson came up to make up the defense.

Pharaoh can only go back to the basket and block one meter in front of the right side of the basket.

Jordan took a step in front of Pharaoh, made an emergency stop, and the moment the ball was pulled from the floor, it flew to Shaquille O'Neal, who was low on the left wing, under a back pass.

After Pharaoh found it, he turned around quickly, but he was a beat slower, only to see that O'Neal had already flown, and he knew it was impossible.

O'Neal took a step into the paint and took off, caught the ball with both hands in the air, and smashed to the basket.

"boom!"

Between the roar of the basket, the entire basket shook.

"Boom!"

The Sharks made two consecutive dunks in the opening game, which made Madison Square Garden cheer.

"Yeah yeah yeah!"

At the moment when the dunk was completed, a live commentator roared excitedly: "Joe Shark connected and completed the most exciting alley-oop dunk, and K was in a dilemma, and could only watch the big shark finish like a stupid donkey. dunk."

After succeeded, the big shark jumped off the floor, and when he ran forward, he pointed at Pharaoh and shouted loudly, "Old K, I'm not finished with you today!"

"Little sardines, just let the horses come over." Old Wang spouted back.

In the CCTV live broadcast, Zhang Lili said solemnly: "In the first four finals, Jordan and O'Neal were on the same wing, but today has changed. Phil Jackson put them on different wings, so that they can attract each other more. Defense, it is easier to mobilize the defense of the Iron Army and let the other person get a chance, the Lakers have to be careful.”

At this time, the Lakers came to the frontcourt, Richmond ran to the right wing, and Kobe took the ball to the left wing.

As a defensive side, Jordan kept up with Richmond, and he still believed that the threat of the Rock was higher.

But in fact, if he keeps up with Kobe, then the Lakers' perimeter attack will definitely be played by Richmond. In the Knicks' perimeter, apart from him, Charlie Ward is limited by his height and strength, and can't defend Richmond and Kobe. Yes, not even Ellis.

This Knicks team is different from his previous Bulls. The former Bulls won with outside defense and triangle offense, but now the Knicks win with inside defense and triangle offense. What's stronger is that there are two triangle offenses. The strongest point, there was only one bull before.

In short, there is one point where the Lakers' offense on the outside must avoid Jordan and conduct it on the other wing.

"Hey, the Lakers have also changed, Kobe is actually on the wing with Old K?" Su Qun said in surprise.

At this time, Kobe started to single against Charlie Ward. Ward knew that he couldn't stand Kobe's sideways attack, so he could only retreat and defend. When he retreated to the paint area, he waited for his teammates to double-team.

But Kobe would not give Ward a chance to retreat to the paint. He advanced to a position two meters inside the three-point line, and when Ward continued to retreat and defend, he suddenly stepped back and made a jumper.

When stepped back, he increased the distance from Ward to more than one meter. Ward completely lost the opportunity to defend. He took off calmly and shot very stably.

"brush!"

The water splashed and hit two points.

"Step-back jumper, beautiful!"

Suqun said excitedly: "The shot is very calm, completely getting rid of the defender, and it smells like old K's step-back hook."

Zhang Lili smiled and said: "Charlie Ward is very difficult to guard against Kobe, and he will be knocked back and knocked over by Kobe's iron mountain. If you retreat like this, Kobe will directly step back and make a jumper. difficulties.”

4 tied, the Knicks attacked.

Dunks twice, this time O'Neal had to take a breath, Jordan took over the offense, singled Richmond, made a pull-up jumper, missed.

Pharaoh controlled the backcourt rebounds and the Lakers attacked.

Kobe attacked with the ball on the left wing and singled against Ward again. The latter did not dare to retreat this time, so he bit his head and stuck it.

"Boom!"

Tieshan leaned on his side and hit Ward's center of gravity easily, then turned around halfway to break through with the ball, and when he reached the paint area, O'Neal, who was in the low position, was forced to come up to defend, and at this time Pharaoh Take the opportunity to move to the basket.

Kobe made an emergency stop and smashed the ball to O'Neal's feet with one hand.

"It's over!"

O'Neal looked back and saw that Old K was already flying.

"boom!"

Under the one-handed dunk, Pharaoh hangs above the basket.

6:4, the Lakers led away, the Knicks attacked, and Phil Jackson called a timeout.

On the TNT live broadcast, Barkley said: "There have been some changes in today's offense. At present, the offense is playing very well. Although Michael missed a ball, it was just a touch problem, not being blocked by the Lakers. Now the Knicks are calling a timeout, it should be Phil Jackson trying to adjust the defensive tactics."

Kenny Smith said: "In the Knicks' main lineup, the No. 1 position is a weakness, and Ward can't guard against Kobe, but his own offense is not good, his organizational skills are also average, and the combination is relatively mediocre.

However, I think the Knicks can let Ward take on part of the breakthrough function, which can save some physical strength for Jordan. At the same time, I think Ward can take on the role of breaking through because he plays small and big. "

Bill Walton nodded and said, "Kenny, you're right, the Knicks really need to make changes. The reason why G4 won the game was Ellis's outbreak."

Before the Knicks bench, Phil Jackson was rearranging his defensive tactics.

Tactics need suitable players to execute, and those who are available are those who are available. He can't break the personnel restrictions, and he can only adjust as much as possible to make changes.

But the adjustment made was to let Jordan guard Kobe and said to Charlie Ward: "Charlie, Rock's breakthrough ability is not as good as Kobe's now, and he doesn't have Kobe's playing skills. You use small to prevent big, and you have to use your flexibility. Advantage."

"OK." Ward nodded.

The timeout ends and the game resumes.

Jordan held the ball and singled Richmond, and the false shot was really sudden, but this time the rock reacted quickly and kept up with the former's breakthrough, and Fordson also came up, and the double-team will be formed immediately.

"boom!"

But Jordan made an emergency stop at this time, and pushed the ball between Fordson's legs. The ball passed through the crotch, rebounded, and was caught by Oakley in the low position.

Oakley immediately went to the basket after receiving the ball, forcing Pharaoh to block on the right side of the basket, while O'Neal on the left was empty again.

Oakley threw the ball high into the air, and the ball flew over Pharaoh's head and over the basket.

"What's so special!"

Pharaoh scolded and dodged behind the bottom line.

The next moment, a giant beast lifted off on the left side of the basket, slammed, and smashed the Lakers' basket with a bang.

Phil Jackson nodded, and it seemed that having Michael and O'Neal side by side, inside and outside, would be more threatening than being on the same wing.

"The triangle offense was initiated by Jordan, followed by Oakley, and O'Neal finished in the low post. There was no way to defend." Zhang Lili shook his head.

"Are you guarding me?"

The Lakers attacked, and Kobe, who was holding the ball, couldn't help but startled when he saw Jordan coming in front of him.

Jordan didn't have a good impression of Kobe. He made a three-pointer last time to celebrate in advance. Although he returned one, it also made him a background board. When Kobe was approaching, he sprayed: "Boy, give me a try? "

"Sudden you, **** you!"

Bryant's eyes burned, and he would not be happy if anyone looked down on him.

But the next moment, he passed the ball to Fox at the top of the arc, and then ran to the left corner himself.
